San Angelo, TX – The Javelinas take down UT-Tyler, Facing DBU in Semifinal
 
Texas A&M – Kingsville won their first-round match up against UT-Tyler in four sets in a match that looked like their regular season meeting.

It is also to be noted that first time this match took place, it was in Tyler and The Javelinas were without Defensive Specialist Tayae-Renae Garcia.
